School leaders are facing growing questions about screen time, AI, privacy, cybersecurity, and the role of technology in learning. To help superintendents lead those conversations with confidence, AASA and CoSN have partnered on a practical communications toolkit to help districts explain how educational technology supports student learning, protects students, and reflects local priorities. This is a timely resource for district leaders navigating growing questions about screen time, AI, cybersecurity, student privacy, and the role of technology in learning. AASA and CoSN are sharing this co-branded toolkit to help education leaders communicate clearly and confidently about how education technology supports teaching and learning while protecting students and maintaining local control. Drawing on practical messaging, customizable communications resources, and audience-specific guidance for families, staff, and school boards, the toolkit is designed to help district leaders build trust, address concerns, and tell their district’s story about the purposeful use of technology in education.
CoSN has just released new guidance to help school systems navigate state policies and community debates on school tech: From Screen Time Mandates to Purposeful Technology Policies and Guidance. The executive summary is free to the public, while the full guide is exclusive to CoSN members. For more resources, visit our Purposeful Ed Tech hub www.cosn.org/purposeful-edtech .
